Swipe. Review. Reclaim space.
Is your Plex server running out of room? Purger for Plex turns library cleanup into a quick, card-based routine: your movies and shows appear as a deck, and you decide with a swipe.
Requires a Plex Media Server you own or administer, with "Allow media deletion" enabled. Deletions are permanent.
How it works
• Swipe left to stage an item for deletion, right to keep it
• Undo the last swipe at any time
• Review the queue and see how much space you'll free before anything is deleted
• Deleting a show removes all of its seasons and episodes
Decide with real data
• Server-wide watch counts: see whether anyone has actually watched that 80 GB 4K remux
• IMDb, TMDb and Rotten Tomatoes ratings (when your server provides them)
• Resolution, codecs, file size and multiple versions at a glance
• Sort by title, file size, year, rating, date added, watch count or random
Pro (in-app purchase)
• Unlimited swipes (free: 25 a day)
• Advanced filters: rating, watched status, resolution, file size, bitrate, release year, date added and duplicates
• Deletion history with search and CSV export
• Fix Match for wrongly matched items
Sorting, the review queue and deletion itself are free.
Built for your setup
• Local or remote: choose how to connect, at home on your network or away via remote access. Plex Relay is used as a fallback.
• Your review queue is saved per library, so you can pick up where you left off
• Batch deletion with a progress bar for every item
• Great for libraries on a NAS such as Synology, QNAP or Unraid
• Using Sonarr or Radarr? Unmonitor deleted items so they aren't downloaded again
• Dark, OLED-friendly design for late-night server maintenance
